Windows 7: Movie files not played from 2nd Local Disk

I started experiencing an odd incident. My movie files from my 2nd internal hard drive (which is a physical hard drive, not a partition that contains my multimedia files) does not play anymore.

My transfer speeds are fine, and I can access my other items like my pictures, documents etc. Just not my movie files. Whenever I double click on a movie file, I see the blue progress bar slowing moving towards the right, and once it finishes, my movies still don't play...

Also, if I right click on my movies, I keep getting the spinning blue circle and then it would say "Windows not responding.." And then if I really wait, it will work for the one movie, but all the other movies won't work..I never had this happen to me...

Furthermore, while running chkdsk like I previously mentioned, I can not longer access my 2nd Local Disk Hard Drive. Is this normal? And in Disk Management it says I have all of the memory (442GB since it is a 500GB HDD) available..

Sounds like firewall or AV or permissions right?...
